Bug#652602: lintian: false positive "weak-library-dev-dependency" for arch:all lib packages.



Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.4
Severity: normal

Running lintian on gmime2.4_2.4.25-1.dsc (from sid) produces

E: gmime2.4 source: weak-library-dev-dependency libgmime2.4-cil-dev on libgmime2.4-cil (= ${source:Version})

But this is dependency is actually OK afaict, since  libgmime2.4-cil is arch:all.

Would it be possible for lintian to check if the library is arch:all
before complaining about this case?
